yeah...the kind u use to scrub pots and pans...i guess

great pic author...gl.

awesome shot....kind of makes u dizzy looking at all those chairs....

i dunno...looks b/w to me....

the chairs don't seem to be the main subject in the photo.....

lovely creativity author...gl

delightful... a fav from my side...

if i guess right author this will be somewhere in the north of india...U.P. or haryana....maybe noida...while these road side bars (thekas) are very popular (reminds me of my college days) and enticing their sense of spelling is murderous....

agrees with ranger.......

is the cat saying grace before tucking into its dinner??

not exactly a close up.....is it?

exceptional shot....one that all can identify with i am sure.....1st day at school....first school field trip.....first time on the swing at the play ground....those innumerable firsts when all we needed was a mom's kiss to see us on our way.....

author it is a very nice shot....just a suggestion....have a look at it in sepia or b/w....looks like a classic...straight out of the sets of Ray's best

found the face author....it compliments the grim subject....wonder how the shot would look in high contrast b&w...

i wouldn't say she looks as if she despises you...its more like she is saying to herself,
"that useless @#$%^&*! what is he fiddling with that camera for?"
lol!

kid doen't look angry, more like she is having a good time...

i feel the term relaxation does not necessarily mean absence of all activity...a person doing something that he/she truly loves doing is i guess the best form of relaxation....if lying down and falling asleep were the only means of relaxation available many of us would have just been snoozing rather than taking photographs!! what say?

great shot

Nice picture....and awesome title....

Isnt it the Howrah Bridge?

Isnt it the Howrah Bridge?

Just a suggestion......A bit of use of the cropping tool could make this shot exceptional.
